Constructing a Novel 'Uterine Sandwich' with Simultaneous Intrauterine Balloon Tamponade and Uterine Compression Sutures to Manage Postpartum Bleeding.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
The uterine sandwich is a relatively new surgical technique for managing postpartum hemorrhage, which is the leading cause of maternal mortality worldwide. The purpose of this case series is to describe a novel method of constructing the uterine sandwich by simultaneously combining intrauterine balloon tamponade and uterine compression sutures. Six patients with postpartum bleeding refractory to medical management were successfully treated with this novel method and avoided hysterectomy. There were no additional complications. This novel method of constructing a uterine sandwich appears to be a simple, safe, and effective technique that could be considered in cases of persistent postpartum bleeding. More research is needed to compare the efficacy of various techniques.
